Default my ne my2001 bugeye

hi all im back,
after owning a lexus is200 for the past year i realised i mise as well buy a fast car that guzzles fuel rather than a slow comfortable one that guzzles fuel.

i got a 2001 bugeye in dark blue, i think they call it mica blue but not sure,
anyway the reason for this post is that i bought it as a weekend toy as i got a company car, the sccob is a bit tatty in places so its going to be a project, my first question is to every one at the meet tonight is do i keep the stickers or not, and secondly what colour mudflaps goes best with this colour scoob?

Or Red flaps, white wheels, UK 300 lights, UK 300 spoiler, smoke sidies and red calipers on a DBM Bugeye.

Got the caliper paint if you want?

Just for starters.

Don't go the Red flaps route, black looks so much better on a DBM!!!

mmm, with regards to mods: Brakes, Suspension, STI lights or Morretts, Swap the Turbo for VF model, bigger injectors, FMIC (Can help with this as I've one in the garage), Remap

Oh the list is endless
